Great job!!

What a treat !

Great place 👍

So much incredible history there! All if those Model A's are awesome! The Business Coupe is beautiful! The commercial vehicles are really cool too! Great video!😎

Loved your video. I own a 1930 Model a roadster Pick-up. Have had it 12 years and I love it.

Thank you so much for the tour, Jay. I really enjoyed it.

Great video!

What an amazing place, and how fortunate we are that you made this video! So now this place is on our bucket list of places to visit. Thanks Jay!

Wow. What cool looking place. I had no idea there were so many versions of the model A.

The Gilmore Car Museum is world class.

Enjoyed!!! 👍👍

Tux-Away was the name of the Rumble seat rain cover. I have only seen original ads for them so thank you for showing me a real one in place. Keep up the great work. Also Ford had the TRI-Moto passenger planes in the 1930s and it is reported a few still fly today in Africa. Made of corrugated steel with wicker seats to save weight. Also the Germans used a twin of that for all of their top brass throughout WW2. Junkers JU-52 also known as Ford Tri Moto.

Loved the early model Ford GT at 8:46!

Noisey shoes. Liked the business coup.

👍👍👍👍👍

My favorite is a Model A roadster pickup. They have (or did a few years ago) several of them at the Volo if you get up northwest of Chicago sometime.

I've been there a number of times. It is a tremendous collection of automobiles and associated memorabilia.

The Edison car is also the very first one built . You mentioned the " Blind Back " , they were called that because they did not have the side windows behind the rear doors

I'd have to choose the Model A Roadsters as favorites. I wouldn't mind driving either one. That museum seems like you could take DAYS to completely take in everything.

Hi Jay!: That collection of A's is FABULOUS! SO MANY RARE Model A's! The oval windowed coupe was a factory body style, but I am not sure about that open truck. My favorite is the A-400 (1931 Convertible Sedan}. Second would be any of the Deluxe Phaetons. You will notice that regular phaetons have 4 doors. but the deluxe was a 2 door phaeton. The blind window sedan was called that because there is not a third window in the back for the passengers to look out of. Ford did make a 4 door sedan with windows there, I think I saw one in the video. The blind window was probably a little more "fancy", just like the RARE town car. If I am not mistaken Thomas Edison's Phaeton was the very first model A. It originally had the sedan body shown in the picture of the first viewing. T.A. liked open cars, though, so Henry put the phaeton body on it. The engine should have the #1 stamped on it, for the very first model A engine (production). Going to have to get me a Model A!!!

Good video, the Gilmore is a special place for all gear heads. But the Model A section is so special, the collection is price less. Last September during the Model A Days weekend, I rode on the School Bus with Paul Shinn driving, he is a Model A wealth of knowledge. Someone had mentioned that this bus was driven from California to the museum. I’ll be back this coming September A days. For my pick of the A’s it’s the 2 door sedan convertible 400A, wished you had looked at this car, it’s a great example of this rare model. I’m partial to this Model, I have one in my garage.

Beach Boys do it again 🤞my mother is from California I miss this she'll kick my butt 😂

I remember a hearing a family story that my Grandmother flipped her Model T over on its side somehow and used her lace-up high heel boot to kick a hole in the canvas roof to get out. Not sure why she didn't just climb through the window.

Dad would have loved this portion of the museum. I took him to the Gilmore years ago but they hadn't built the "dealership" buildings yet. He was born in 28, so he would have definitely have related to everything in there.

Opera glasses.

Thomas Edison’s model A not just be it was his but the fact it is Model A job one serial number #1

I thought the Cabriolet with the rumble seat tent was unique. I'd like to have a roadster pickup.

You can have any color you want as long as it is black.

Edison and Ford were big pals. They would go camping together. Ford made a camp mobile. I imagine Ford gave the car to Edison. Edison was something of a charlatin. Tesla hated him. Tesla and Westinghouse went with AC and destroyed Edison and DC.

Lost In The Wind, maybe? Not sure of the band.

Mannequins don't freak me out but I don't like seeing them at museums. Too me, they make the displays look cheesy.

Beach Boys - Be true to your school ?

Great Video !
